The Nibblonians are the oldest known species in the universe(If Yivo is discounted). They stand about one foot tall and have two large eyes, as well as a third eye on an antenna in the center of their foreheads. They have black fur (leaving them prone to hairballs), with pale yellow circles on their bellies and around their mouths. The males have fangs but the females don't. The Nibblonians are widely considered to be the cutest race to ever exist, though this is something they resent.

History

Nibblonian ships attacking.

The Nibblonians are a proud, ancient race, their history extending 17 years before the universe existed. However, this can be explained with the loop of time and the possibility thar their race grew old in a different universe before coming to ours. Brilliant and powerful, since the dawn of time they have battled their ancient nemesis, the Brain Spawn.

Biology

The Nibblonians live extraordinarily long lives. It is not known at what age, or even if, they die of old-age. All that is known is that they can live far in excess of 1000 years. Members of the species seem to eat primarily meat (only Nibbler has been shown eating anything else), and in prodigious quantities. They regularly consume many times the mass of their bodies per day, without gaining weight. The Nibblonians also have a "cuteness reflex" that kicks in whenever they are scared or in danger. It causes them to act like helpless, adorable creatures. As waste, they excrete pellets of dark matter, an extremely heavy material formerly used as a starship fuel. The mechanism by which meat, which is made of ordinary matter, is converted into dark matter inside the Nibblonian advanced digestive tract is unknown, although it can be assume it may be based on a kind of black hole or pocket dimension which would explain their ability to much larger creatures whole and not visibly gain any weight. They are capable of swallowing themselves to enter their digestive systems and get out of a universe. The Nibblonian eyestalk is capable of emitting several types of energy that can wipe memories or burn skin.
